To this generation. Look close at this video. No guns ,no violence,no crazy crap. What u see is young an old black American folks having a good time. Take some lessons from the video.
I'm a white guy who was only a year old in 1972. I heard about the Watts riots in the 60's but don’t ever recall hearing this time period being a bad time for anyone of any color or nationality. Everyone here just looks so happy and in the right vibe of everything! Everyone may be one race here but good vibes are contegeous. Inside we are all the same people and we should all be loving and respectful of each other. RIP Mrs. Shaw
Just discovered her tho I remember the song and heard the sample use... I'm the same age 67 she was when touring again w this... I must learn this but the arrangement from Cadet/Chess records BRINGS IT
Watts Staxx. 1972 I was 15 and I was there. Lived in Inglewood at the time. Before the guns drugs gangs and killer cops. The destruction of my community was by government design. No wicked deed goes unpunished. That's what the Bible says. Look it up .
Oh my goodness looks like one heck of a festival and concert...unfortunately I wasn't there because I am almost certain I had too be around thee or four back then❤️♥️💯💢
Legendary Watts Music Festival in 1972. It was all peace and love back then, dancing and grooving, no one packing heat. A different time, baby! California Soul indeed, baby!
@@MemoGrafix that’s my point there was no handheld phones yet and certainly no phones with cameras so they couldn’t take selfies anyway if they were a thing then people would , it makes no sense to me when people slate young ones for taking pics and having their phones all the time but it isn’t their faults it’s just the time they’ve grown up in and has been invented
@@Emilyxx495 - Yes it is the times younger people are growing up in. I would like that people are not so self-absorbed and having the DumbPhones as the ONLY window to the world. People can talk about hardcore drugs all anyone wants, *_Digital Drugs_* are by far the most addictive for many _(not all)_ people. This is worse than TelLieVision addiction. At times I will not use any digital electronics for several days just to detox My mind from the Digital Pollution, except to answer My phone when some one calls. I rarely go on FaceBook, TikTok & YT Shorts. They make attention-spans equivalent to a mere Goldfish as a few Scientists, Biologists & Psychiatrists have researched & tested.
